No, your corolla has a normal differential, the wheel with least resistance will receive power/torque and the one on the ground will receive zero power/torque. You're car will not take off.
Hot brakes and humming/roaring noise

Learnt something new today, wouldn’t have guessed that.
I tried doing the one wheel off test and can’t tell any difference in sounds.
Are there any other components that could cause the sound similar to a wheel bearing?
If the sound is actually related to wheel rotation, then the following components come to mind: brakes, brake shield (maybe it's rubbing on the rotor), wheel bearing, CV shafts and differential bearings.
I dropped it off at a shop this morning. They got back with me saying that the noise is coming from the rear drums area. So they’re recommending replacing the shoes and the drums.
Can those cause a rhythmic/harmonic sound line what I’m hearing?
I’m typically used to brakes causing a rubbing/grinding noise if the drum is out of round or friction material is funky on the shoes.
Took the car for a spin after I had the rear drum shoes retracted as much as I could (8.5 rotations of spinning vs. 1.5 rotations and Ebrake can be pulled all the way up without really slowing the car down at idle).
I don’t think it’s the rear shoes if the symptoms and sounds are the same?
